Christmas Party!

Ho ho ho ho ho it August so last christmas card for today, this is from a couple of the gorgeous new Lilli of the Valley stamps, this uses the bauble bough and the young girl dancing as well as a sentiment from their range.

This card is on an 8x8 square white card blank with a red base and christmas tree paper from my crafty stash to which I added a bow to balance the card and the bow on the main stamped and promarkered image bordered in a green pearlescent card. The holly berrys are done with liquid pearls, the ivy berries with liquid applique (unheated) and glitter added to some of the baubles to add texture and definition.

Great cards Emma .... sadly I can't read any of the writing on your blog as it is too small and in a fancy font on the yellow background. Try enlarging the text to make it easier. Love the cards though. Love Cynthia x

About Me

I have been crafting for around 5 years now. Recently extending my experiences beyond card making into both Art Journalling, Art Canvases and Mixed Media Projects.
I remain a devote of rubber stamps however and my husband has relinquished our small third bedroom into my craft room which I am beginning to kit out with all the fripperies and storage solutions a crafty gal can need.
I live in Bedfordshire with my wonderfully tolerant husband Ben, two cats and our chihuahua.
I work full time so dont get to craft as often as I would like and can hold my hands up that often I am in trouble when the washing is overflowing the basket and the housework hasnt been done as I have gone to play with my crafty stash.
I love to read, listen to music and now keep a journal to hand for all my thoughts, feelings, recipes etc;
I also love watching films and listening to music whilst crafting and it is amazing the speed time travels when you relax and enjoy your favourite hobby.
Only flaw now is whenever we go on holiday I do check out to see if there will be a craft or art store in my sites for the odd crafty purchase.
